From the My account page in your Settings, you can tailor your Lever account and ensure that you are being notified of all relevant activity in your organization's Lever environment. Note that this article reflects personal account settings for users with Super Admin, Admin, Team Member, and Limited Team Member access. Users with Interviewer level access can only update certain email notification settings as well as their account avatar image.


Configuring personal account permissions

To configure personal account settings, click your avatar in the top-right corner of the platform header and select Settings from the menu. Personal account permissions pertain to Lever's ability to integrate with your organization's technology suite (e.g. Google, Office 365, Microsoft Exchange). Use the checkboxes to sync:

Contacts
When this permission is enabled, you can share candidates in Lever with anyone at your organization.

Calendar
When this permission is enabled, you can receive calendar notifications and schedule interview events to your work calendar.

Email
When this permission is enabled, you can sync email messages sent to candidates from your email address to the their profile in Lever. Note, if 'Limited email sync' is enabled in your Lever environment, enabling this account-level permission will only allow you to send emails from Lever via your email address (i.e. email sent to your work email inbox cannot be synced to candidates' profiles).

Refer to our help article on troubleshooting account sync issues to watch a recorded demonstration of how to configure personal account permissions.

Configuring email notification settings

Managing followed job postings

From your personal account settings, you can also manage the postings that you follow. Typically, followers are added to the posting itself. Under the 'Following' header in your personal account settings, you will find a summary of all postings that you are following. You can remove yourself as a follower from a posting by clicking the 'X' on the posting tag. To follow more postings, click Add job postings to follow and select a posting from the menu.
